Teo aEnch of Verv Little.

The E2 Dorado County Republican thus
refers to the present race of certain news
papers to multiply pages by extending the
same matter under the multiplex padding
process
The Examiner and Chronicle are making
a fierce fight for journalistic leadership in
San Francisco. Their papers have grown
to enormous size in pursuing the silly idea
that the citizen demands several acres of
reading matter in his daily paper. The
real facts are that busy man wishes to
know by few minutes reading in his
daily paper what there is happening in the
world of real importance. Lifeis too short
TO waste so much of it in the perusal of
such trivial reading as these papers print
under the name OF news. 1t makes even
an industrious man tired to look at one of
them. They are like the traditional oyster
soup at boarding house. After swallow
ing several gallons OF slushy water YOU
sometimes find an oyster; and so, in read
ing these inflated productions, you some
times find a fact worth noticing. A news
paper cannot at all times be equally inter.
esdDg, because its interest chiefly depends
upon the events narrated. If events of
interest do not happen, a part of the pa
per's interest for that issue is necessarily
gone, and no amount of padding, putting,
stuffing, and staring head lines can cheat
people into the belief that it is telling news
of Importance.

Wild AnimeIs In Rencnl.

The total number of persons killed by
wild animals and venomous snakes in the
ten divisions of Bengal during the official
year 1856 was the highest in the last FIVE
years, and amounted TO II ,S23. As is usual
pine-tenths of these deaths were caused by
snakes. But of 1929 buffaloes, oxen,
horses and ponies destroyed in this man
ner, only 81 were killed by snakes. These
annual returns do not take account of
sheep, goats, pigs and monkeys, the de-
struction of which is very large. The hy-
ena IS credited with the destruction of 773
head of cattle. IL Bhsguipore the number
Of wolves killed fell TO sc from 337 in the
year before, and the reason given was that
a shikari had been punished for an attempt
to pass of jeckals heads for the heads of
wolves. Passing over the most formidable
wild animals, it appears that 54S persons
were killed by jackals, 221 by crocodiIes or
a,llgators, 81 by pigs, and % by elephants
whether wild or domestic is not sated-12
by butaloes and oxen, by horse, by q
deer and , by m1skrats, the bite of the lat
ter having brought on modification or te-
tanus. Only IS deaths were put down to
mad dogs, which is regarded as a manifest
understatement Not single death was
caused by wild animals in the town or
suburbs of Calcutta, but 13 persons died
from snake-bite. The total amount of
29,SS4 rupees was paid for the destruction
OF wild animals and veuomous snakes. as

Blue Monday in the Coffee Market-A
Regular Stampede.
New YORK, June 13th.-The excitement
in the coffee market, which has attended
the decline in coffee, reached its highest
to-day, and the brokers acting for bull op-
orators became panic-stricken and rushed
to sell, without regard to prices The bulls
blame the Gruner-Crossman syndicate Tor
starting the decline which eliminated in
to-day's panic, but the bear syndicate
strained every nerve to check the fall, with
out success. In fact, the syndicate brokers
were the only buyers at the opening, which
was at II cents pound-over a cent below
Saturdays close, and although rally was
caused by bear-supporting orders, rlmors
of trouble and continued selling caused
them to stop buying and join the bulls in
unloading the stuff they had taken early.
All through the forenoon the selling was
coupled with the widest scenes ever wit
messed in the Exchange. and in all the
offices there were knots of brokers gathered
discussing the prospects of recovery.
In the afternoon there was hope of a
rally. but heavy selling continued, and
soon the price fell OFF in heavy fiuctua-
tions, until ii reached Is cents pound.
This decline was accompanied by a notice
of the suspension of three firms-B. G.
Arnold Il Co., Norton, Weyland, Bevan &
Mackay, and Small. After the announce
ment of these failures an organized effort
was made by prominent house-0'Don-
ahue Gruner & Crossman-to sustain the
market, and they succeeded. in causing a
rally of about one cent all around.
The failure of B. G. Arnold & Co. at
tracted the most attention, as they are the
most prominent house in the trade, but it
WAS ppnerallV anticiuatad
The general opinion seems to be that the
market has touched bottom, and will be
stronger, but no one can predict with any
surety. The panic has resulted in a sudden
influx OF kilograms from brokers, one OF
which, from Hayre. France, SAYS that the
coffee market there has risen three francs
(sixty points, to-day, owing to erroneous
quotations from New York. Thus it would
seem that the bulls must have taken ad-
vantage Of the panic, and cabled heavy
advance instead of an actual decline.

iCopyiSht, 1851 by tie California associated ressi
BENSON "a. IT,, June 13th.-A courier
arrived here early this morning from Lieu
tenant Johnson's command with the in
formation that the hostiles' camp had been
surprised on the top of Rincon mountain
Saturday at noon, and all the horses, sad
dies and blankets captured.
The Indians abandoned everything and
scattered among the rocks and canyons.
The soldiers trailed on foot till sundown,
forcing the renegades out of the mountains,
and yesterday morning trailed them to San
Pedro river, which they had crossed during
the night, heading for San Carlos.
1t is now believed they are trying to get
back to the reservation, in which case they
will have to pass between Fort Grant and
Arayaipai canyon.
Captain Wint took up the trail at the
point where the Indians crossed San Pedro,
and Johnson will go at once to Arayaipai
canyon to intercept them.
The hostiles can do no serious damage
in their present crippled condition. If not
captured soon they will probably lay hid
den in the mountains until they get an
opportunity TO make raid on some ranch
to procure horses.
Lieutenant Johnson is warmly COM
mended for his vigorous pursuit and cap
ture of the Indian outfit.
Great excitement was caused yesterday
by report circulated that a general out
break Of the Apaches was about to occur
but up 10 this time nothing definite has
been heard.

New YORK, June 13th.-In his speech in

If the manufacturers drive out the

anarchy will follow; so / will say to the
manufacturers, Beware unless you meet
men half way, there will be those who will
not meet you half way, and who will not
be as friendly as the Knights of Labor
The thing which the Anarchists would hail
with the greatest delight would be the dis

man should be so blind as to thrust aside
the hands of the Knights of Labor. l have
held back the hands of anarchy in this coun-

not, but there will be. We are having it

Referring to the reports of certain dissen-

BALTIMORE, June 13th.-Yesterday Car.
dinal Gibbons preached the first discourse
since bis return from Europe to an audi
ence packed in the Cathedral He said the
Pope exercised greater influence over the
civilized world than that of any ruler on
earth. His words were more conducive
to peace than all the standing armies of
Europe, and he was greatly interested in
America. Speaking of the labor question,
he said the workingmen here were better
clothed, fed and housed and had fairer
prospects than any other country. He
denounced anarchism, and declared the
man who seeks to injure the Constitution
of this country deserved the punishment of
the man who attacked the ark of God.
Referring to. the fact that the Stars and
Stripes and Catholic banner were placed
side by side in the procession to welcome
him back to Baltimore he said he wanted
always to see the two flags lovingly en-
twined, for no man can be faithful to God
without being faithful to his country.
